05.17.11 | I don't think I've encountered anyone else on here that watches this show. They should, it's dark comedy/drama at it's best. Also, recs appreciated. |
InFiction
05.17.11 | Yeah, I love Breaking Bad. I've only seen the first 2 seasons though. Sick show though. |

05.17.11 | Saw the trailers for season 1 but never watched it. Need to get on it. |

05.17.11 | can't fucking wait man, yea my avatar is Walt and Jesse and no one has ever mentioned anything about it. Best show currently on television by far. |
foreverendeared
05.17.11 | That's because no one knows who you are.
Anyway, can't wait for it. Show has progressively gotten better imo. |
Sanders
05.17.11 | Yeah, season 3 was awesome, it has a horrible/infectious habit of leaving you on the most ridiculous of cliffhangers.
@Phlebas - yeah you do, it's well worth it. |

05.17.11 | God i hate his fucking wife though. She was kind of a bitch in Deadwood too, although I guess she had reasons to be. |
Sanders
05.17.11 | Now Deadwood I've not seen. Worth a dabble? |

05.17.11 | @Sanders
A lot of people I know say it's the greatest show they've ever seen but I couldn't get into it. Give it a shot if you like westerns. |
foreverendeared
05.17.11 | Oh fucking definitely. It has the greatest character ever created for TV, Al Swearengen. |
Sanders
05.17.11 | Greatest character ever?! Does he top Malcolm Tucker from The Thick of it...? |
tom79
05.17.11 | So stoked for season 4 |
Esky
05.17.11 | One of the best shows of the past decade. Is for good reason that it and Mad Men pretty much split the Emmys. Living in Australia so will definitely be streaming this as soon as it airs. |
foreverendeared
05.17.11 | Haven't seen it, so regretfully, I cannot compare. |
MO
05.17.11 | Can't wait, this is one of the only new shows I've watched in years. |
foreverendeared
05.17.11 | God, Mad Men is so overrated. |
MO
05.17.11 | anyone here watch The Shield, now that's a badass show |
tom79
05.17.11 | I can't really watch cop shows after seeing The Wire |
Sanders
05.17.11 | This is a few of Malcolm Tucker's best bits. It's much funnier in the context of the show though. I can highly recommend it if you're into satire.

Edit: Watched the first 2 episodes of The Wire, just couldn't get into it :( and never watched The Shield, but I fear I might have ruined my opinion of the protagonist before watching it, having seen No Ordinary Family, which is shit. |
foreverendeared
05.17.11 | The Shield was good for the first few seasons, but I just got sick of it and haven't watched the last 2 seasons. |
foreverendeared
05.17.11 | haha no, show looks great. I'll download it for sure. |
WashboardSuds
05.17.11 | dude your avatar is so |
foreverendeared
05.17.11 | Dude, you HAVE to give The Wire a full chance. At least the whole first season which isn't that long. The show is seriously incredible. |
Mordecai.
05.17.11 | yeh great show, but it really frustrates me sometimes how much his life really sucks, even though he is rich. |
tom79
05.17.11 | shit nvm. post deleted. |
Sanders
05.17.11 | @WashboardSuds - ...awesome?
@foreverendeared - I reckon I'll try again after exams, I'll have plenty of time to indulge!
@Mordecai - Yeah, money doesn't buy you a nice wife! |
foreverendeared
05.17.11 | Tom, that was to Sanders :] |
tom79
05.17.11 | yeah ha i got that now. But yes, The Wire is incredible. |
foreverendeared
05.17.11 | I watched The Wire right after The Sopranos. Needless to say that was 2 months of epic. |
tom79
05.17.11 | Ha I did the same thing |
foreverendeared
05.17.11 | lol weird. |
tom79
05.17.11 | Yeah I had a couple months of unemployment last year, I just ripped through HBO shows lol |
foreverendeared
05.17.11 | lol me too. Seriously, I was on unemployment too.
This is getting weird |
Sanders
05.17.11 | Speaking of HBO shows, I've still not watched The Pacific... |
fsharptrit0ne
05.17.11 | @foreverendeared yea good point...
also yea The Wire is brilliant in every aspect, its a must watch show. It's the most engaging show ever
Also I've never seen Deadwood but I've heard good things but does this Al guy really top Omar? That's hard to believe. |
foreverendeared
05.17.11 | Al does top Omar, but just BARELY. |
fsharptrit0ne
05.17.11 | hmm.. well I'm in the middle of Firely right now but I will give Deadwood a shot after. Is it consistent or what? |
foreverendeared
05.17.11 | Firefly is awesome. Don't forget to finish it up with the movie Serenity. Also, if you end up enjoying the show a lot, I have to recommend Joss Wheadon's other masterpiece, Dollhouse.
Deadwood is very consistent. It just sort of ends, which is a bit of a disappointment, but they were expecting to make a movie after it ended to kind of wrap things up on the show, but that didn't happend. Well worth the time though, it's a great show. |
tom79
05.17.11 | Yeah I've put off watching Deadwood because I heard it didn't have a proper ending. But I'll get around to seeing it sooner or later. |
fsharptrit0ne
05.17.11 | Yea, its excellent, I will check out Dollhouse as well. I'm very interested in this Al character. It's not that long either so it wont take that much time to watch |
Sanders
07.26.11 | Well what do people think of the new season so far? |
